And hello E1Flyer, welcome to the British Airways forum on Flyertalk. Thank you for joining us, and it's good to hear of lurkers benefiting from this resource. But you are no longer a lurker, and long may you continue to contribute. Welcome on board.

I was in 1A on the first service from LHR to ARN. By having 3 huge windows that seat is fantastic to watch the world go by. For a long haul I'd probably still go for 3A or 3K (which does not have as good a view due to the wing, and loses half a window) but for a shorter service I think 1A is great. I'm a regular CW user, and having now flown on BA's A380 and 787 services, I feel the that 787 is better for CW travel, not least because I'm a window gazer, and I am not so fond of large cabins.

Have a great time and let us know what your think.
